The Art on the Hiking Trail »Ars Natura – Art on the Hiking Trail« was launched as a millennium project in 2000 with the aim of incorporating the landscape, primarily along major long-distance hiking routes, into the presentation principle of art. On the section of the Barbarossa Trail between Melsungen and Spangenberg, one can experience the implementation of this idea excellently. Those who also want to admire the historic building fabric of both towns should preferably start the ambitious circular hike at the former Melsungen Castle.
